1 Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America LLC Winter Scheduling 2018/19 1

2 Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America LLC This presentation is provided as general guidance, and reflects NGPL s view as of October 23, 2018, based upon current information and normal winter weather conditions. This information must not be relied on by shippers in making or confirming commercial transactions. Shippers are reminded to refer to individual postings of notices regarding scheduling restrictions and service availability on an ongoing basis, particularly during extreme weather conditions, and are encouraged to contact their account directors with any questions. NGPL schedules capacity in accordance with its FERC Gas Tariff. NGPL evaluates daily pipeline conditions to determine what, if any, limitations are required. 2

3 LINE PACK SERVICES Line pack services include LPS/IBS NGPL s SRO program is under the LPS Rate Schedule Off the pipe activity is anticipated to be limited to MDQ On the pipe activity is anticipated to be allowed to exceed MDQ Dependent on weather and system usage, NGPL may not allow Line Pack Services OFF the pipe. 3

4 STORAGE SERVICES Injections For both Amarillo and Gulf Coast leg storage services, up to or above MDQ anticipated Withdrawals For both Amarillo and Gulf Coast leg storage services, up to WQ anticipated 4

5 TRANSPORTS for Storage It is anticipated that NGPL will require In- Path transport associated with Storage Withdrawals on both the Amarillo and Gulf Coast legs For injections, In-Path not normally required during winter on either leg and NGPL anticipates the same for this winter. 5

6 LOCATION (LOC) Scheduling NGPL monitors all receipt (REC) and delivery (DEL) locations to insure that physical flow is consistent with nominated activity and applicable no-notice rights. Any REC LOC underperforming may be posted as Location Off Rate (LOR) with nominations scheduled down to match flow. NGPL attempts to make LOR scheduling cuts in the ID1 or ID2 cycle, but if causing system problems ID3 cuts may be required. For DEL LOC taking at a daily or hourly rate in excess of nominations plus no-notice rights, a LOC specific Operational Flow Order (OFO) may be posted. DEL LOCs need to have nominations in place prior to flowing. 6

7 AFFECTED AREA (AA) LOCATIONS NGPL may schedule segments as a group: AA Segments 2, 5, and 6 AA Segments 3, 4 AA Segment 10 It is anticipated that NGPL will Schedule Primary Services Only for Segments 2, 5, and 6 and Segments 3, 4. LOCs in the AA may be individually scheduled if a LOR is posted. 7

8 SEGMENT SCHEDULING NGPL reviews all segments each cycle to determine which segments are required to be scheduled. NGPL posts daily updates when a segment has limited capacity, is over capacity, or has capacity become available. This information can also be found on the Current Pipeline Conditions posting (CPC) which NGPL posts Monday through Friday 8

30 UPCOMING MAINTENANCE SEGMENT 13 - AMARILLO #3 MAINLINE ILI TOOL RUN Natural will perform an additional ILI tool run on the Amarillo #3 mainline between Compressor Station 108 (CS 108) located in Warren County, Iowa and Compressor Station 109 (CS 109) located in Keokuk County, Iowa (Segment 13 of Natural s Amarillo Mainline Zone). As a result, Natural is required to temporarily reduce the maximum operating capacity in the affected area. This restriction will limit Natural s throughput capacity eastbound through CS 108. The scheduling constraint will be at CS 108; therefore, any gas received west of CS 108 for delivery east of CS 108 will be impacted for the duration of this restriction. For scheduling purposes, the Amarillo Mainline Pool (LOC 10566) is located west (upstream) of the constraint. Firm transportation nominated from receipt points west of CS 108 (including the Amarillo Mainline Pool) for injection at any Amarillo storage point will be impacted. The MidAmerican delivery point (LOC 10568) is located east of CS 108 and will also be impacted. Points Not Impacted: Receipt points that are nominated west of CS 108 for deliveries to Northern Natural (LOC ), Black Hills (LOC ), Corning (LOC ) and Green Valley (LOC ) will not be impacted during this restriction. The Northern Border (LOC ) receipt point, as well as any other supply points downstream (east) of CS 108, will also be available. As such, effective for gas day Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Timely Cycle, and continuing through gas day Wednesday, November 7, 2018, Natural will schedule Primary Firm and Secondary in-path Firm transports to no less than 50% of contract MDQ through CS 108. Actual nomination levels and changes in pipeline conditions could result in changes to the percentages scheduled (lower or higher) on subsequent gas days. AOR/ITS and Secondary out-of-path Firm transports will not be available. The stated scheduling percentage is based upon the current level of firm capacity contracted for during this restriction and is subject to change based upon operational conditions and Shipper utilization. Continue to monitor Natural s interactive website for any updates to the end date and/or scheduling percentages during this restriction. 30
